PlanX

Southwark Council

Submission Summary:

Plan✕ is not a one-off innovation. It applies digital innovation to transforming how we do planning. Although the project is still in its early days, it is already self-evident to us that this has huge potential to make planning easier, cheaper and more transparent for citizens and businesses, and to liberate planning authorities from the burdens of the paper-based system. But the real objective is not just reducing costs, it is increasing value: putting more control into the hands planners, freeing them to do what they do best – shape healthier, greener, safer and more inclusive cities.
